Les Journaries Côte-Rôtie Syrah

Really fucking nice. My 00 prejudice wants to interject. But can't.

Good. Not as effervescent as one might have hoped. And really, that label?

Big fan of northern Rhone. This one had some charred meats, granite and was straight up delicious.

Showing better than expected from magnum.

2009. Brilliant wine.

Love these guys wines!

Brooding in comparison to the 07

This is in a great spot at the moment. On the nose: meat, violets & cacao. The palate is fairly smooth and open, with just a touch of tannin.
